On being a Jewish feminist a reader Heschel, Susannah editor, writer of introduction. text bibliography essay Aufsatzsammlung. History Essays. nyu 1983 monographic eng print xxxvi, 288 pages ; 21 cm Over the past decade, the Jewish woman's movement has wrought significant changes in Jewish life. Yet despite piecemeal concessions, Judaism remains a tradition in which the experience of males is the norm and women are seen as "outside and other." Is it possible to be a Jew and a feminist? Yes, Susannah Heschel argues, if Judaism grows to include the feminine experience of being human. The essays in this collection demonstrate how feminist contributions to ritual, liturgy, and theology can revitalize Jewish life for all its adherents. -- From publisher's description.
